it was quite a life he had,

one of my favourite Connery scenes was the cameo role he had in this movie,
the whole cinema erupted with cheers when he appeared…

By all accounts a lovely man but he was a terrible actor; as wooden as they come and any accent you like, as long as it’s Scottish.

My wife could kill you for this. 
He was brilliant in Highlander playing a Spaniard 
Also in the Rock, an underated movie, with nods to bond.

I loved him in every movie he did. The Untouchables a particular highlight for me.
But even from the Man who would be king (thanks, @RedSeven), the Medicine Man, Entrapment (CZ-J, oh yes)…I adored him. Actually had a tear in my eye when I heard the news.
RIP.

Exactly. A great film star doesn’t really have to do that much other than have great visual presence and great luck to get a prime role early.
The best films he was in were that great because of the two directors he was lucky to be working with , not because of him.
Alfred Hitchcock in 'Marnie"
John Huston in ‘The Man Who Would Be King’
His co-star in the latter is the far better actor.

I watched Hell Drivers a couple of weeks ago and was surprised to see him pop up in that!
A lovely man in some regards, for example setting up foundations for Scottish Arts.
In other respects, not so much. His attitude towards women was deplorable.
